To tell you the truth, I WAS expecting to see some good acting in this movie. And I got that. I wasn't sure about the story because I didn't watch the trailer. Berry and Del toro did their job, I personally am a fan of Del toro. I know he doesn't let anyone touch his hair, but still there were times when I just wanted to force a brush on his hair. The sad widow and a recovering addict were the strongest characters. If I had the chance I would have shed more light on only one character.
There wasn't anything great about the story, but with the help of the actors it became good. In 2007 I have seen a lot of movies, but it has to be one the better ones.....much better than those two tarantino movies. Was this review helpful?

I didn't like the way it jumped back & forth between then & now, it was distracting. The actors were excellent and the drug addicted friend couldn't have been done better. The story as a whole was depressing but drug addiction & the loss of a loved one isn't a happy situation. Don't know if I'd pay to see it, I'd rather wait & see it on DVD. Was this review helpful?

I think that each of the primary actors did a wonderful job including Halle Berry. Eventhough, it was depressing, it makes you realize how vulnerable we all are and that we never know when death will come or how... Was this review helpful?

Sign In 1 out of 1 users found this helpful LOVED this movie....Posted: 10/22/2007A review of Things We Lost in the Fire by Dblue832 This is one of those movies you say to yourself, as you are watching, "This is a good movie". I will say that maybe 5 times in a year, and I see ALOT of movies. I really liked everything about the movie, and would gladly see again. David Duchovny is terrific, but Benicio Del Toro is unbelievably fantastic- His performance alone is worth seeing the movie for. Halle is Halle, beautiful, but still not convinced she is an Oscar winning actress. She is good in this, but can she lose the ghetto, "wachoo..." for "what you...", it doesn't work. I know she won, but so have others who were the one time flukes, especially newbies who in their next performance resemble the Oscar winning performance they won for. Overall, my favorite of the 3 for this weekend.
Halle Berry, Benicio Del Toro, David Duchovny Was this review helpful?

Good chemistry between the cast, it was a little long at times, but the ending it worthwhile and it's a good message about rebirth and starting over, not too much make up ojn Halle here, but she still shines on the screen....
